Is that Arduinopoda?
or do you program it with EEKPROM

@cinebox @futurebird Hey, this would be kinda cool in a sci-fantasy setting. Imagine there are some arthropod creatures with microchips embedded inside them. Now let's say that some of these microchips include wireless control signals that are also wired to their motor system, like the wired cockroaches we've seen in the news recently.

Now imagine that their legs are also conductive; imagine they got some kind of highly conductive form of chitin.

Also imagine that the creatures' DNA also got modified so the chips would get assembled right from conception - before you know it you got a gigantic mass of walking microchips, ready to be controlled at a moment's notice.

The assembly signal arrives, and before you know it these creatures are assembling themselves to form a biological supercomputer ready to process signals at their masters' whim. A fee thousand bugs now get assembled into a giant creep ball that acts as a secondary brain for a bigger monster.

Now imagine this brain is also connected with a different kind of animal - one that instead of microchips, has specially strong muscle fibers and can attach to other similar bioengineered animals.

Give it a few hours, and when assembled you got a massive army - a literal army - of self-assembling armored demons ready to attack your enemies, that can only be dispelled with a specific signal - a signal that priests in a far future society can control.

Yes, I'm definitely using this for one of my novels, bwahahahahahah! ​
